    IP ABUSE OF THE DAY

    Athletes Don’t Own Their Tattoos

    by Alex Tabarrok

    —“NYTimes: Any creative illustration “fixed in a tangible medium” is eligible for copyright, and, according to the United States Copyright Office, that includes the ink displayed on someone’s skin. What many people don’t realize, legal experts said, is that the copyright is inherently owned by the tattoo artist, not the person with the tattoos.”—

    Some tattoo artists have sold their rights to firms which are now suing video game producers who depict the tattoos on the players likenesses:

    –“The company Solid Oak Sketches obtained the copyrights for five tattoos on three basketball players — including the portrait and area code on Mr. James — before suing in 2016 because they were used in the NBA 2K series.

    …Before filing its lawsuit, Solid Oak sought $819,500 for past infringement and proposed a $1.14 million deal for future use of the tattoos.”—-

    To avoid this shakedown, players are now being told to get licenses from artists before getting tattooed.

    This is why it’s important to help our people, our pack, and packs, understand the basics of Propertarianism.

    The Ivory Tower stands on quicksand of lies, deceit, pseudoscience, fictionalisms, wishful thinking, bias, propaganda, fallacies, rhetoric, errors, ignorance, and arrogance.

    Truth is enough and informs excellent agency.

  • UM…. NO. PROPERTARIANISM IS TO NATURAL LAW AS PHYSICS IS TO THE LAWS OF NATURE

    UM…. NO. PROPERTARIANISM IS TO NATURAL LAW AS PHYSICS IS TO THE LAWS OF NATURE.

    —“I’m somewhat confused, is Propertarianism a rebranding of libertarianism?”— Laudanum

    Um. It’s far more than that. It’s the completion of the scientific method and its application to social science.

    However we focus more on Economics, Ethics, Law Politics, and Group Evolutionary Strategy, and we use demonstrated property in its totality as a unit of measure – in not only economic, but ethical, moral, legal, and political commensurability.

    So, the correct name for the work would be Natural Law.

    We just can’t use it because the term has been so loaded throughout history, on the one hand, and because it’s not an identifiable ‘brand’ on the other.

    Laws of Nature = The Physical Sciences.

    Natural Law = The Social Sciences.

    Sorry but it’s a paradigm shift that we just have to pay the cost of learning.

    Postmodernism like feminism and marxism are designed to justify theft. that’s all they are. philosophical fraud. Just like the priesthoods did before them.

    THE OPTIMUM FORM OF HARD CURRENCY?

    I would be happy to pick up on the scalp, and shrunken head thing. In fact, now that I think about it, I’m not sure shrunken heads aren’t the best form of hard currency we could develop….

    omg… was that my outside voice?

    DECONFLATING PROPERTARIANISM

    Out of habit, we mix (a) Propertarianism as a social science (a truth), with (b) the use of Propertarianism to produce a Nomocracy as a choice and preference, with (c) the transcendence of man by the civilizational production of agency, by using nomocracy, triparitism (multi-house government), and Markets in Every aspect of life, as the traditional order of the european people.

    Those are three different things: A science, A Strategy, and An Implementation.

    There is no ‘possible’ government that cannot be constructed under propertarianism and nomocracy. (ie, anarchy and communism are both impossible,) It just means that one must be truthful in the construction (constitution) of that government – in the construction of the contract for rule.

    So, under propertarianism (social science), and nomocracy (rule of law), the choice of the terms of the contract under which we organize the economic, social, political, and military functions of society is up to the people who author it.

    IS PROPERTARIANISM SOMEHOW CONSERVATISM?

    The term “propertarian” refers to a ‘criticism’ of libertarians, rule-of-law advocates, ’empiricists’, and ‘materialists’, made in the mid-twentieth century. So I intentionally ‘appropriated’ the criticism ‘propertarian’ as a definition: ‘propertarianism’.

    All propertarianism is reducible to is a demand for individual Sovereignty, which requires Rule of Law, which then requires, truth, duty, reciprocity, and property. Which then requires markets in everything. Which includes courts that resolve differences empirically, by demanding truth, reciprocity, and property. Leaving the ‘preferential and good’ to the individual sovereign’s choice.

    This “Sovereignty” or “Sovereigntarianism” results in western hierarchical (market) Aristocracy (monarchy, aristocracy, nobility, burgher, craftsman, laborer, serf, slave, and ‘wild man’) and the institutions of an independent judiciary, a monarch as a judge of last resort, a jury, or’ thang’ or senate or parliament, or multiple houses of parliament, and a militia.

    So yes, Propertarianism consists of the previously unwritten philosophy of (traditional) western civilization.

    And as such it consists of libertarian(intellectual), classical liberal(political), and conservative (military).

    And as such, yes it is a ‘conservative’ (aristocratic) philosophy.

    ANARCHISM OR RULE OF LAW (NOMOCRACY)?

    One cannot both advocate for a uniform definition of property, and argue for anarchy. Hence why I argue for nomocracy: the natural law of reciprocity = the law of tort = the law of property = discovered by the resolution of demonstrated conflict = decided by tests of involuntary transfer.

    —“Inferences can’t be measured, property-en-toto (a demonstrated definition – i.e. demonstrated interests) can. so no, couching agency isn’t a meta-frame for cults, nor a result of ignorance of the agency-structure interdependence, but rather a matter of calculating agency by its resulting output. (the key point of confusion is the presumption that property is restricted to tangible stuff [materialism] where as property-en-toto includes the intangibles, things like, relationships, goals, identity – anything we invest our time, effort and care into [demonstrated investment])”— Bill Joslin

    Perfect. No one will defeat Bill now.
